My Good Bright Wolf : A Memoir

Summary: Pushing at the boundaries of memoir writing, Sarah Moss investigates contested memories of a girlhood with distracted parents, loving grandparents, and teachers who said she would never learn to read. Then, by the time she was a teenager, Moss developed a dangerous and controlling relationship with food. 'My Good Bright Wolf' explores the narratives of women and food that we absorb through our childhoods and adulthoods, and the ways in which our health-care system continues to discount the experiences of women, minorities, and anyone suffering from mental illness.
